A Meeting for Royal Matters

Big Mac lead us to the edge of Ponyville, the seemingly small village we saw from so far away was a lot bigger when seen up close. He stopped and turned around to address us. He said something about ponies and how they might react to us. He said not to draw to much attention to ourselves and we would reach the station and will be on the train to Canterlot in no time. When we approached Ponyville we crossed a small bridge that was built over a creek, but cause it was winter it had frozen over. Pete being a little adventuress decided not to take the bridge and instead slid across the frozen creek to the other side then climbed back up, I laughed a bit and Hugh tapped him in the back of the head. The first thing I saw when we entered, was a little shopping center with multiple colored tents, selling all sorts of fruits and vegetables. When we began our pass most of the ponies that were shopping and selling stopped what they were doing and looked over to us with a mixture of sacred, suspired, and worried looks. We just waved and smiled and kept moving.

One of the ponies who was a sort of mint color walked up to us as we were walking. She wore a red and black stripped scarf and light blue ear muffs, on her back were saddlebags filled with all sorts of food and candy, on her flank was a harp or something. She sort of followed us and looked all of us over like we were some sort of oddity or treasure of some lost civilization. Suddenly a great big smile appeared when I took of my helmet to scratch my head. I sort of stared at her for a while cause she seemed to be following my hand. I couldn't help but laugh at the pony and smile a bit. But, sticking to the plan I kept on moving, but the pony seemed to frozen in one placed as I moved along, I think she was in some sort of shock. Slipping my helmet back on, our group stopped and we bunched up around Big Mac.

"Alright humans this train will take up to Canterlot just wait for it to pull up and hop aboard and you'll arrive within the next few hours." Before would could move to the platform Hugh caught something in the corner of his eye.

"Heads up men, we got company!" He pointed up into the air. I followed his finger till my eyes meet up with a Golden Chariot, that shined in the sunlight as it's golden rays beamed from above. It was being pulled by two Pegasi, their chariot was carrying two much taller ponies both of them had wings and... HORNS? There are UNICORNS HERE? My mind was racing with endless possibilities of this crazy world, why are talking ponies, why are there unicorns? can they do magic and stuff ? They landed in front of us and the two larger ponies got out and sent the chariot back into the sky. I turned to Hugh and he looked at me and motioned toward my assault rifle to get it ready, he had his hand on his M9 just incase things flew south.

"So, thou are the beings that are called, Humans, am I correct?" The blue one spoke up with a booming voice. Hugh and the British NCO stepped forward.

"Yes we are humans, is one of you Princess Celestia?" The white one stepped forward.

"I'm Princess Celestia ruler of Equestria, this is my younger sister, Luna the Co-ruler. I am pleased to meet you and glad you came this early." She said back in a much calmer voice then Luna. We sort of looked at each other until Hugh spoke again.

"What do you mean, Just, in, time?" He said crossing his arms.

"We can't talk here we need to wait for the train to talk in private." Celestia said pointing toward the just arriving train at the platform. "I don't want to cause a panic." So seeing no other option we boarded the express train as did the princesses and soon after boarding, the train took off toward Canterlot. I looked back on the platform and waved bye to Big Mac before the train picked up speed and darted off. All of the marines were in one car, wile the NCO's and the princesses talked in a completely different car that was empty besides them. We could here them talking, but couldn't make out any words. A conductor came up from the door in the back of the car with a ticket punch in his mouth.

"Tickets! tickets please." He said. We all turned around at the same time and looked at him. He didn't even say anything his face said it all, it's that face you get when you did something wrong and you know you did but you don't speak up, it's that face that just screams, "Oh shit..." Because right then and there he turned right around and headed back where he came from and slammed the door shut.

The talking carried on for a few more minuets until our NCO's came out of the car and into ours and told us the game plan.

Hugh spoke first. "Alright listen up, cause I'm only going to say this once. This country where we are currently staying on is on the brink of war and the only reason were are here is cause the two princesses chose us with this bottle," He said as he pulled out the bottle from earlier out and showed it to us, "They need our help or else this place will fall and this other race called Changelings will rise and enslave everyone, and they might even try to enslave our world as well." Everyone, now knowing this shocking news became very worried. Hugh passed out pictures of the Changeling army to the group on small scrolls. I got the picture and on the page was a picture of some sort of castle like structure with a black cloud hovering over it. The cloud had very small but very noticeable blue eye's, there were millions of the things. I looked back up and passed the scroll to the next marine. The British NCO stepped forward. "They, will enslave our world, that bottle is a gate way from this world to our world if they get ahold of this, well, there is no end to the amount of pain they will cause. We need to return to Earth with the princesses so we can get as many soldiers we can get our hands on, for America, for England, FOR EQUESTRIA!! Now who's with me?" We stood at the same time, "HOORAH!!"
